Standard analysis:
C | Si | Cr | Mo | V |
0,37 | 1,0 | 5,3 | 1,3 | 0,4 in % |
Heat treatment data:
Stress-relief annealing: 650 – 680 °C
Soft annealing: 750 – 780 °C
Hardening: 1000 – 1030 °C
Quenching: Oil, air or warm bath
Tempering: 530 – 680 °C
Special heat treatment:
If the material is eroded or nitrified the tempering temperature has to be above the secondary hardness maximum. A double tempering is recommendable
